A nice, small museum dedicated to the famous Escher. The museum exhibits his works and illustrates and explains how they progressed and the theory behind it. An absolute must for Escher fans!
Als liefhebber van Escher is Escher in het paleis een erg interessant museum voor mij. Doordat het museum in het paleis gevestigd is is de ambiance erg fijn. Wij vonden vooral de latere werken van Escher interessant, waarin gelijke vlakverdeling een belangrijke rol speelt.
Erg fijne collectie van Escher's werken en geschiedenis van zijn leven en invloeden. Naast het museum is het gebouw (paleis) ook zeer fraai!
